Abstract
The subject technology determines a set of shards corresponding to an external data source accessible via a network, the external data source being hosted by an external system separate from a network-based database system. The subject technology determines, using a stream object, a set of offsets of each shard of the set of shards. The subject technology identifies an operation to perform on the set of shards, the operation comprising a read operation or a write operation. The subject technology, based on the set of shards and the set of offsets, performs the operation on the external data source.
